How the system works
TIP To receive product firmware updates, this baby monitor requires connecting to a 2.4GHz home Wi-Fi network.
Direct signal connection
Your baby monitor parent unit and baby unit connect to each other in Direct
mode by default which allows you to immediately stream video out of the box.
TIP You may experience reduced signal strength if your parent unit and baby
unit are far apart, or there are obstructing factors, such as internal walls,
between them. Move the parent unit closer to the baby unit to improve the
signal strength.
Wi-Fi signal connection
You are required to set up your monitor in Wi-Fi signal connection to enjoy
live video streaming via your mobile app with an enhanced connection.
It uses your 2.4GHz home Wi-Fi network to connect your video monitor.
It supports live video streaming through the mobile app.
To stream live video remotely with your mobile device, download, install the
My VTech Baby Plus mobile app. With the mobile app, your Wi-Fi router (not
included) provides Internet connectivity to your HD video monitor system. It
serves as a communicating channel between your baby unit and mobile device,
allowing you to monitor and/or control your baby unit wherever you are. For
more details, see Download app for mobile access section in this quick start
guide. Note
- When both parent unit and app are viewing the camera simultaneously, the video quality will be optimised to deliver the best possible viewing result.
Protect your privacy and online security
VTech cares about your privacy and peace of mind. That’s why we’ve put
together a list of industry-recommended best practices to help keep your
wireless connection private and your devices protected when online. We
recommend you carefully review and consider complying with the following tips.
Ensure your wireless connection is secure.
-
Before installing a device, ensure your router’s wireless signal is encrypted by selecting the “WPA2-PSK with AES” setting in your router’s wireless security menu.
Change default settings. -
Change your wireless router’s default wireless network name (SSID) to something unique.
-
Change default passwords to unique, strong passwords. A strong password:
– Is at least 10 characters long.
– Is complex.
– Does not contain dictionary words or personal information.
– Contains a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, special characters and numbers.
Keep your devices up to date. -
Download security patches from manufacturers as soon as they become available. This will ensure you always have the latest security updates.
-
If the feature is available, enable automatic updates for future releases.
Disable Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) on your router. -
UPnP enabled on a router can limit the effectiveness of your firewall by allowing other network devices to open inbound ports without any intervention or approval from you.
A virus or other malware program could use this function to compromise security for the entire network.

• Turn down the volume of your parent unit.
test the location for the baby unit
If you plan to install your baby unit in a designated location, and use your home Wi-Fi network to connect your video monitor, you need to test which of your selected monitoring areas within the house have good Wi-Fi signal strength. After you have powered on your parent unit, you can use your parent unit’s Wi-Fi signal indicator to assist in checking. Once you have identified the suitable location, you can install your baby unit. Adjust the distance between your baby unit and the Wi-Fi router if needed.
Tip
- Surroundings and obstructing factors, such as distance, electrical appliances, and internal walls, may reduce Wi-Fi signal.

mount the baby unit (optional)
NOTES
- Check for reception strength and camera angle of the baby unit before drilling the holes.
- The types of screws and plugs you need depend on the composition of the wall.
You may need to purchase the screws and plugs separately to mount your baby units.
-
Place the wall mount bracket on a wall and then use a pencil to mark two holes in parallel. Remove the wall mount bracket and drill two holes in the wall (7/32 inch drill bit).
-
If you drill the holes into a stud, go to step 3.
• If you drill the holes into an object other than a stud, insert the wall plugs into the holes.
Tap gently on the ends with a hammer until the wall plugs are flush with the wall. -
Align the wall mount bracket and screws with the holes in the wall as shown. Tighten the screw in the middle hole first, so that the wall mount bracket position is fixed. You can tighten the other screw in the top hole. 3. Insert the screws into the holes and tighten the screws until only 1/4 inch of the screws are exposed.
-
Place the baby unit on the wall mount bracket, and then slide it forward until it locks into place.
Connect the power adapter to the baby unit and a power supply. 4. Place the baby unit on the wall mount bracket, and then slide it forward until it locks into place. Align the holes on the wall mount bracket with the screws on the wall, and slide the wall mount bracket down until it locks into place. -
You can maximize your baby unit’s viewing angles by tilting the wall mount bracket.
Hold the baby unit, and then rotate the knob in anticlockwise direction. This will loosen the joint of the wall mount bracket.
Tilt your baby unit up or down to adjust to your preferred angle. Then, rotate the knob in clockwise direction to tighten the joint and secure the angle.
